ETS Light and Check Engine Light on

Hi all. Needing help. A few days ago, My trac off light came on, in conjunction with my service engine soon light. Took it to Autozone, the computer read "misfire in cylinder four". The service guy asked if I had bought any cheap gas, and I did in fact, have to stop and get gas in a hurry before this happened, and it wasn't the most reputible station.

Well, two tanks of gas later, the trac light off light still comes on, service engine light is on again. I have read on many forums where this is a common occurrance. In addition the the lights being on, I am noticing that when my engine is not warmed up, it idles very low, and feels like it is going to choke when at a stop light. It has not stalled yet, but I am concerned.

Any ideas???

I had this same problem but my car did stall a few time and the transmission would always shift hard. I did a tune up and serviced the tranny (fluid and filter change) I have not had a problem since then.
